That is where they make this cheddar cheese.
It's very good. We went there once and watched them
making it. They have a x-sharp, sharp, medium and I
think they may make Jack I"m not sure about that.
I love their cheeses.

If you have a latin market in your town you might find
the chayote. Look it up on Google, lot's of info there.
I got two big ones for a dollar at the .99 store.
They are much more expensive in regular super markets.

I have the chayote scalloped potatoes in the oven right now. I had to start them early to get them done in time, it's a busy day.
We are having them w/ steak tonight. I will have to have a very tiny serving since today is a steak day for me, but tomorrow I will be all over them.
I will report back when they come out of the oven. Can't wait.

Ok, ready to report back on the scalloped potatoes. The taste was out of this world, Barb. You have a real winner here.
I had to alter it a bit and I screwed it up. I didn't use carbalose because I didn't have any, and I think that was the problem. Hubby has diabetes, so didn't want to use regular flour, but the squash dish came out w/ watery residue in it. I boiled the chayote in water for about 10 min. before building the layers. Built the layers and it smelled so yummy while it was cooking and the taste was divine. I was reading where CarolynF said that Chayote was a "wet" veggie, so maybe that was the problem. I was really hoping the cheese would melt and thicken the whole thing, but while the cheese did melt, the water was half way up the dish. I drained what I could, tilted the pan so it would all run downhill and dipped from the top. Gotta figure out a way to not have the water problem. Maybe microwave the chayote next time without any water? Any other suggestions? Maybe make a cheese sauce next time? I want to use this recipe, but I have to fix my screw up first.

So sorry it was watery. I drained the squash really well
and had no water in my baking dish. Did you slice it thin?
We used a mandolin and I pressure cooked it and then
cooled and drained it on paper towel. I don't think I said that
on recipe for which I apologize.

Scalloped Potatoes LC

All I can say is that we love this dish and had it with BBQ ribs.

I most certainly will try it again, Barb. The flavor was out of this world. I will use the paper towel trick next time and maybe just microwave it without water too. Hubby liked it better than any other scalloped potato recipe I've tried. Thanks so much for posting it.

Hmm, Barbo, we made this scalloped potato dish. It was absolutely delicious. My husband could not stop raving about it, and he is eyeing the next 2chayote I have in the refrigerator, hoping I'll make this again! I used my GF bake mix and 1/2 tsp baking powder instead of the Carbquik. Trick is to slice thin slices. I cooked mine until almost tender, but not quite and then layered it. It was not watery at all - fantastic!

Barbo, this recipe is awesome. I made it today with superb results. I do not have a pressure cooker, so I nuked 3 peeled and sliced chayote in the microwave with no water added. I drained the liquid that came out of the chayote before I proceeded. Also, I carmelized some onions (I just love that touch from Dottie's scalloped turnips), and I thickened with glucomannan. This is the best potato sub I have tried yet. Thanks so much for the recipe.
